Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment paper with cooking spray.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
-
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a thick dough forms.
-
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts, if using, until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between the logs for spreading.
-
Bake the logs in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
-
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the logs into 1-inch-thick biscotti. Place the biscotti cut side down back on the baking sheet.
-
Lower the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and bake the biscotti for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until they are crisp. For an extra crunch, you can flip the biscotti halfway through the baking time.
-
Once done, remove from the oven and let the biscotti cool completely on a wire rack.
